G-OZBX at Oporto Airport, my last flight with Monarch :(

Apologies for the appearance of my finger.
 
"What wouldn't like for breakfast?"

"O will have the champagne breakfast please"

"Certainly sir."

"Sorry sir but we have no half bottles of champagne left"

"Not to worry. I'll have...."

"But we do have a whole bottle which you can have with our complements..."

Monarch. Unforgettable...made landing at Madeira before the runway extension ever so more bearable. Thank you. Never to be forgotten.
 
Lots of pleasant memories of Monarch.... I once had a Brazilian girlfriend who lived in Tavira, a town on the Algarve and on the flight path into Faro for Monarch if it was approaching from the east. She knew the distinctive blue and yellow colour scheme of their planes and many-a-time when i have landed i have had an SMS from her saying i saw you fly over my house 20 minutes ago.

Monarch, so distinctive in so many ways...

I preferred the yellow and black colour scheme, took my first 757 flight to Crete with Monarch. We got bucks fizz and a lovely low level tour of Bedfordshire just before our early morning landing back at Luton.
 
By the way folks, I am sorry for my pics just being airways shots I have taken, I have not been able to visit an airport for years so the only think I can take is airways shots.

Took a couple of pictures today at kemble of a Monarch A320 but haven't been able to upload any photos on here for months. Anyway don't know what it was doing at the boneyard, it was still intact and would have thought too new to break up?

No issues at this end. I've uploaded some pictures today.

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
